Drake Maye throws three interceptions in New England Patriots loss to Seattle Seahawks

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye threw three interceptions in a Week 1 loss to the Seattle Seahawks at Lumen Field on September 9, 2026. The game concluded with the Patriots failing to convert on a final scoring opportunity in the closing minute of the fourth quarter. Maye’s performance included multiple turnovers that hampered the team's offensive rhythm throughout the contest. The Seahawks played a portion of the game without starting quarterback Sam Darnold, who departed before the second half. While critics have drawn comparisons to Caleb Williams of the Chicago Bears, observers noted that even established quarterbacks experience inconsistent performances. Maye will look to recover in the coming weeks as the NFL season progresses.
